Chapter 84 - Lu Family?
Liwei looked at her and pursed his lips.
' This woman always makes him speechless.' She is not like other girls, who like to shop or like grand events, at least not now. If it was old Xie Ming, it was easier to make her happy.
But he never cared before, now the situation is different. He wants to woo her but doesn't know-how. She is talented and doesn't need his help.
He can't just help her like a damsel in distress, and after which she will fell in love with him.
And came to him, running to be with him.
He knows, that this old school tactic will not work on her, she doesn't need his help instead she is capable enough to help herself and others.
She can do everything herself. She has such a sharp and sweet tongue, that she doesn't even need to cuss at anyone, but she can make other person's blood boil with her sweet tongue.
...
He looks away from her, and casually said, " Now I am already here, so let's eat first. It's already lunchtime, and you must be tired... after reading that many documents in such a short time." he said while coughing awkwardly. He wants to spend time with her, but she was trying to send him away.
She looked at his back and the smile can be traced on her face. She neatly organized the documents that were scattered on the bed and kept them aside. And followed him downstairs.
When they reached downstairs, they sat at their respective chairs. As they sat, the maid served the dishes. Ming started eating as soon as the dishes served.
She was hungry, she was reading the documents since morning, and she was really tired and hungry.
She thought to herself, ' I became too lazy after I came to this body.' she sighed.
In the past, she used to work from dawn to the night, but never felt this tired. She was the Empress and needs to manage the Harem and the title of Empress seems extravagant but it isn't. No title comes without any duties.
She has to manage harem finances, resolve their fights and many more things. The most tiring thing was to resolve their conflicts because In harem all the ladies of Palace used to stay. And those used to fight, or scheme on very meager topics and it was her duty to maintain peace in the Harem.
While eating, Liwei kept glancing at her. Then he asked, " Ming, do you remember the lady that you saved the other day?" he asked cautiously.
Ming looked up and put her chopsticks down. Then she looked at him with a confused look and said, " Yess. I remember. But what about her?"
She doesn't know why Liwei suddenly asks her about that lady. ' Was he suspecting her story that she told him the other day.' When this thought came to her mind, she got anxious. Because if he questioned her about it, she doesn't know how to explain it to him.
She can't possibly say the truth, because only some stupid will believe her because till now even she can't believe what happened to her. How could she possibly make him believe her. Sometimes she feels that it was all a dream.
' Sigh'
Liwei looked at her and thought, ' Isn't she curious about that lady. Because if anything had happened to her, Ming can be in trouble for treating her without any medical certificate.'
Liwei smiled and said, " Aren't you curious about the lady's condition?"
She looked at him and blinked and said,
" What's there to be curious about. I know she must be fine because when she went to the hospital, they only need to treat her superficial wounds."
"And as for her internal injuries, I tried my best to treat them. As long as she gets treatment, she and her baby will be fine. "
She said this with a blank expression without blinking an eye. She thought to herself, 'What's there to be curious about. While she was doing acupuncture at her, she knew what she was doing.
She was not some local doctor in ancient times, she was the daughter of the great oriental doctor, Zhao Bai. These people cannot compare to her knowledge and expertise in oriental medicine. '
Liwei looked at her in confusion.' Is she some psychic or what? How could she know everything, and the level of confidence that she has cannot be compared even to the top doctor in country S.'
' The case was so critical and she doesn't even have any medical degree but went on to treat the lady that too in under everyone's eyes. And she doesn't even bother to ask about that lady, because she knew that she will be fine? '
He looked at her with baffled and amusing expression.
He finally spoke, " Hmm, you're right. That lady was fine and the doctors just had to treat her wounds and they put her on the observation."
He paused and continued,
" And the lady you saved was the Mistress of the Lu family. And the child inside her is the heir of the Lu Family. You saved the heir of the Lu family. " he said with a smile on his face.
Ming stared at him and asked," Lu Family? "
